PopBar – A Poppin’ Place for a Sweet Craving

A beautiful sight.

PopBar doesn’t disappoint. As a novelty specialty store, it may have difficulty in creating a following. For me, Popsicles somewhat lack the satisfaction (calories) gotten from consuming a two-scoop ice cream. . . . → Read More: PopBar – A Poppin’ Place for a Sweet Craving

Lotus of Siam Review – When the hype fades…

For the price that Lotus of Siam charges, the food was a slight disappointment. It’s not as authentic as Sripraphai, and it’s not as exciting and innovative as Kin Shop.

Hung Ry – Serious Hand Pulled Noodles

Hung Ry combines solid small plates, authentic noodles, and precise execution of the culinary concept. In my opinion, Hung Ry is by far the best noodle shop in the area. (Ippudo may have the hype, but Hung Ry delivers much more flavor.) Perhaps I should go back to blaming the cobble stone street, or maybe Hung Ry is just catching on. . . . → Read More: Hung Ry – Serious Hand Pulled Noodles
